Abstract: A process for treating a suspension of solid particles in a carrier liquid comprises subjecting the particles in the suspension to gravity settling in a treatment zone. The treatment zone has at least an upper free settling region in which free settling of solid particles through the liquid takes place, a hindered settling region below the free settling region in which hindered settling of particles takes place, and a compaction region below the hindered settling region in which the solid particles are in contact with one another so that a slurry is formed in this region. Clarified liquid is withdrawn from the free settling region. Liquid is allowed, in at least the compaction region, to move upwardly along at least one upwardly inclined pathway, while at least partially protected from settling solid particles. Slurry is withdrawn from the compaction region.

Abstract: A method for determining the length of a telephone line from an exchange to a subscriber. The method is based on the availability in the exchange of so-called line circuits (LC1-LC4), each having a given amplification factor G for the signal transmitted from a given subscriber through the line, this factor being stored and made available to the microprocessor (MP) of the line circuit card (LK), and also that the attenuation for each unit of line length D between the exchange and the subscriber is known. Since these magnitudes are known, the line length L is calculated in the microprocessor (MP) from the equation L = k.G/D, where k is a constant which is calculated for a given determined length, amplification factor and attenuation/length unit.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une machine conçue pour former une élingue avec une boucle (27) à l'extrémité du câble (8) et avec un manchon de fixation (2) utilisé pour bloquer le câble de la boucle (27). La machine comporte des poulies d'alimentation (7) conçues pour alimenter le câble vers un côté d'un dispositif de presse (5) à travers un manchon de fixation (2) introduit dans le dispositif de presse et sortant du côté opposé du dispositif de presse (5). La machine comporte de plus un conduit allongé (10) situé à la sortie du dispositif de presse (5) et conçu pour guider l'extrémité frontale (13) du câble (8) dans la direction d'alimentation pendant l'alimentation des poulies d'alimentation (7) du câble (8). Un dispositif de fixation (14) est situé à l'avant de l'orifice de sortie du conduit (10); il est conçu pour saisir le câble (8) à une longueur donnée derrière sa partie frontale et au moyen d'un dispositif de retournement (15) retourne l'extrémité du câble (13) sur un demi-tour de manière à constituer une boucle (27); il dirige également la boucle en arrière contre le dispositif de presse (5), assez loin pour que l'extrémité du câble pénètre dans le manchon de fixation (2) parallèlement à la partie du câble (8) s'étendant à travers le dispositif de fixation (2). Un premier dispositif de repérage (29) est conçu pour détecter la position correcte de l'extrémité du câble dans le dispositif de fixation (2) après la formation de la boucle (27) et pour donner le signal de retournement de marche de l'alimentation du câble. Un second dispositif de repérage (31) détecte la dimension correcte de la boucle (27) et donne ensuite le signal au dispositif de presse (5) pour presser le manchon de fixation (2).

Abstract: A permanent, biocompatible material for soft tissue augmentation. The biocompatible material comprises a matrix of smooth, round, finely divided, substantially spherical particles of a biocompatible ceramic material, close to or in contact with each other, which provide a scaffold or lattice for autogenous, three dimensional, randomly oriented, non-scar soft tissue growth at the augmentation site. The augmentation material can be homogeneously suspended in a biocompatible, resorbable lubricious gel carrier comprising a polysaccharide. This serves to improve the delivery of the augmentation material by injection to the tissue site where augmentation is desired. The augmentation material is especially suitable for urethral sphincter augmentation, for treatment of incontinence, for filling soft tissue voids, for creating soft tissue blebs, for the treatment of unilateral vocal cord paralysis, and for mammary implants. It can be injected intradermally, subcutaneously or can be implanted.

Abstract: A plasma gun assembly for use in high temperature environments couples electrode and cooling water supplying hoses to a plasma gun via an extension arrangement having a conductive cathode extension tube coaxially disposed within a conductive anode extension tube. The cooling water flows through the hollow interior of the cathode extension tube to the plasma gun, then returns from the plasma gun via a passage formed between the outside of the cathode extension tube and the interior wall of the anode extension tube. In this manner the anode and cathode extension tubes are cooled as well as the plasma gun. Powder and plasma gas are supplied to the plasma gun by water-cooled tube arrangements in which such tubes are surrounded by intermediate and outer tubes forming separate passages. Cooling water is coupled via fittings to flow through the passages formed by the intermediate and outer tubes to provide cooling.

Abstract: This invention relates to delivery of biologically active cargo molecules such as polypeptides and nucleic acids into the cytoplasm and nuclei of cells  in vitro  and  in vivo.  Intracellular delivery of cargo molecules according to this invention is accomplished by the use of novel transport polypeptides which comprise one or more portions of HIV tat protein and which are covalently attached to cargo molecules. The transport polypeptides of this invention are characterized by the presence of the tat basic region (amino acids 49-57), the absence of the tat cysteine-rich region (amino acids 22-36) and the absence of the tat exon 2-encoded carboxy-terminal domain (amino acids 73-86) of the naturally-occurring tat protein. By virtue of the absence of the cysteine-rich region found in conventional tat proteins, transport polypeptides of this invention solve the problems of spurious trans-activation and disulfide aggregation. The reduced size of the transport polypeptides of this invention also minimizes interference with the biological activity of the cargo molecule.
